| Unless the breeder is just down the road and you can take him now, you have to deal with his immediate problem. Take the feeding advice given so he can make it through the night unless you're packing him up for the breeders right now. Even if you are, get some karo into that baby to give him a little something to go on. From the sound of your posts, that baby needs immediate attention.

| No Honey.....it has bacteria in it. If NutriCal isn't available Karo is better.

| I would just stress that a lethargic puppy is a short step away from a hypoglycemic episode and needs immediate attention. He needs some Nutri-cal or karo to get his blood sugar up and then he needs to eat, whether on his own or if you have to feed him. It really only takes minutes for a pup to go into shock or seizure once they're weak from not eating.

| Mardelin is right about the honey. If I had nothing else, I would use pancake syrup before honey.

| LOL, it wouldn't be the first bad idea posted here. Many puppies show no adverse affects from the bacteria in honey, but some do. In a very young pup, it's just a risk that's easy to avoid.

| This woman needs to be turned in Bad most likely nasty dog breeder out for only the bucks. If she loved her pups this would never have happened. I would call humane society and have her investigated. I bet they find a she has a bunch of different breeds that none are really taken care of. TURN HER IN!!!!!!!! And Save that pup. |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | You can use sugar and water also. Heat it up on the stove and it will thicken. If you don't take him back you need to get some supplies fast, goats milk, beneabac, karo, bottles to feed, heating pad to keep warm under a little box to put him in to keep him warm. sryringes. I like a kids medicine dropper to feed with when they won't take a bottle. I sure hope he is ok!

| This is great advice ~ Use the unflavered pedialyte (this is found in the baby section at walmart or grocery store) AND don't be afraid to use an eye dropper or syringe NO needle to get him started. Keep him hydrated and close to you. He is too young and I am sure very scared also,So just keep encouraging him to eat and drink. Please keep us posted ~ |
